Tv programmes you wish you could see again

[NoEffingWay]

Possibly for the first time:

It's a sin-watched it again but almost unable to as found it so upsetting the first time
Pramface-bbc3, not on iplayer but genuinely funny.
Survivors-bbc remake from about 10 years ago
Handmaids tale-and stop at the end of season 2

There was a show on BBC a good few years ago now called “undercover princes” where they took I think 3 princes from places like Africa and they were searching for love. It was absolutely hilarious. I do check i-player for it every now and then but alas I don’t think it will come back.

How do you want me with Dylan Moran - very funny, no idea why it never gets repeated.

Give us a break. 1983 show that started my lifelong crush on Paul McGann. Though I just found it on YouTube and it is seriously dated, and Robert Lindsay's cockney accent is atrocious.

Loads of those mentioned.

I'd love to be able to watch the original series of 24 for the first time again. It was so fraught and exciting- and in those days you had to wait a week for each episode so the tension really mounted!

@sadsack987 oh I missed it , I will have to keep a eye open for it coming back round .

I rewatched all of the buffy series right at the start of the first lock down , I liked Spike the 1st time round but my goodness when I rewached it PHEW . . . . he's a handsome fella. I also love his wit which passed me by the first time

I wish I could watch Breaking Bad again for the first time. I know it's still on all the streaming platforms BUT it's not the same now I know the ending

Yes to Midnight Caller and The Waltons.
Spooks is on the iPlayer
Up I have all The Flying Doctors series on DVD. Still have a DVD player, but have I found the DVD's since we moved 8 (yes, 8!) years ago? I think they're up in the loft. Asked DP to look for them, but he can't see them. Possibly a man look. I daren't go in the loft. Dodgy ladder and bad knees. I want to watch them again

The Magician. Starred Bill Bixby.

I have thought of a few more ;

Brush strokes with Karl Howman

Boon with Michael Elphick , I had the theme tune to the show ( high ho silver ) as my ring tone for ages . Such a shame Michael died when he was only in his mid 50s.

Someone help me , I can not remember the name of the show with Joe McGann and Honer Blackman where he played a house keeper , it ran in the late 80s I think.

I also really liked Bread , but I rewatched about a year ago and while it is still good , its not as funny as I recall but I still have a crush on Joey

the show with Joe McGann and Honer Blackman where he played a house keeper - The Upper Hand
Survivors-bbc remake from about 10 years ago - I don't so much want to watch this again as to know what was going to happen! The series ended on a cliffhanger with some of the survivors heading off to some kind of island where they were going to find out more...

I would like to wipe my brain every time I finish watching Battlestar Galactica so I can watch it again without knowing who is a Cylon.

And in terms of series I would like to see again, The Adventure Game and Box of Delights although I am sure the magical-for-the-time CGI has aged appallingly.

I'm probably using CGI wrongly there. Special effects I should say.

Brush Strokes was repeated on Drama channel recently. I watched a few episodes and it hadn't aged well!

A cartoon called Dolly Pond! It is nowhere to be found. So funny. Trials and tribulations of a thirty something woman.

Pond Life

Did one actor - Warren? Suddenly die in real life?

@Pebbledashery

The Lost Honour of Christopher Jeffries, watched it in itv when it was on and it was a master piece of depiction.. I can't watch it again as I can't bloody find it anywhere you don't have to pay for it.

That's when I first realised how excellent an actor Jason Watkins is.

Goodnight sweetheart

CHiPS is on the Forces TV channel very regularly.

@LightDrizzle

- Oh and Prisoner Cell Block H! I fucking love that programme. for so many reasons.

@LightDrizzle i absolutely loved Cell Block H. I had a TV in my room as a teen in the 80s and I would sneak that on late at night 🤣 Such a great programme.

If we're talking from childhood, animals of farthing wood

Also, not really a series but total wipe out was a great watch too!

Wow thanks so much! That's my afternoon sorted 🤣
